DARING RoBBERY!!
Three Men Shot and One of Them
Instantly Killed

One Of the boldest attemp pts at rob
berry that has ever occurred in
Forest County, was made upon
Jacob Wagner, a farmer living in
Tionesta township, about FIVE miles
from this place, last evening, at about
Z o'clock. The particulars of which
as near as we can learn are as follows
The members of the family who
were home, at the time, consists Of
Mr.. Wagner, his wife, three grown up
boys, and a niece, who is staying with
the family. Mr.. Wagner and sous,
who had just returned from their farm
work, were about sitting down to sup.
per, when Mrs. Wagner, who was re.
turning from an out.building saw FIVE
masked men in the yard, when one of
the dare devils advanced and compel.
led her at the point of revolver to
throw up her her hands and make no
outcry under the penalty of instant
death, while the Others made a rush
for the house, and by the aid of hick.
ory clubs they carried in their hands,
broke open the door, entered the house
and striking Mr.. Wagner over the head
cutting deep cash and otherwise bru-
tally beating him. The sons rushed to
his rescue, whea Jacob Wagner Jr.,
grasped chair, and knocked one of
the burglars down, whereupon the bur.
glar shot him with revolver, the ball
entering the left side just under the
arm, lodging in the shoulder During
the fracas one of the other young men
was badly beaten, the robbers doing
indiscriminate shooting without effect.
At this point the robbers took to
their heels when one of the young
men, who had concealed himself up
stairs, opened fire upon them with
Winchester rife, and by a we'll d.
rected shot, ended the career of one
of the perpetrators of this high hand.
ed outrage, and woupding another,
and the officers are now in pursuit of
him.
The dead burglar was found q few
hours afterwards, about ten rods from
the house, and appears to be a man
about 20 years of age, quite good
looking, with red hair, wore a dark
suit Of clothes, and his face was con.
cealed by white cloth used for
mask. Nothing was found on his per-
son by which to identify him and was
not recognized by those present as
ever having been seen, and it is evi.
dent he was professional burglar.
The young man who was shot is not
considered dangerously injured, and
will recover.
The burglars in their hasty fight
left behind them three revolvers, which
were intended to aid them il their in
famous work, they however failing,
as far as known, to secure any booty.
No traces at this writing are as yet
obtainable of the other parties, but it
is to be hoped they will be caught and
speedily brought to justice.
Coroner Morrow, accompanied by
Drs. Siggius of this place, and fowler
Of Marienville, and a large number
of our citizens departed for that place,
where an inquest will be held on the
dead body of the burglar to-day.
A photographer has been summoned |
who will photograph the dead body
of the burglar, to be used for identi.
fication.

once" Mr.. Donaldson had previously
received letter from his sister, Mrs o.
B. Wright, of Rural, who is visiting her

any way prepare MIR. Donaldson for the
shock the distressing telegram brought.

against selling tobacco TO minorsa Every
thing with the boys runs in cycles, and the
smoking cycle has come with the tops CT
garettes are emphstically ''inn lust now; |
have seen dozen boys under Ia smoking
them within the past few days. | cannot
help feeling that if they were smoking clay
pipes instead of treaeherous cigarettes, the
case would not he half SO bad My memory,
at the mention Of pipes, indeed, is carried
back with jump TO a primitive scene Of my
boyhood There was a cozy countryside
where sheep were raised in great numbers,
and where great care was taken with their
wool. Every year the lambs were bathed
with a solution of tobacco, to guard them
against the ticks. For this solution, cheap
tobacco stems and leaves were bought. and
before it was applied the stepped liquid was
drawn off, leaving a mass of stems and leaves
at the bottom.
These the boys managed to secure and to
dry in the sun upon the roof; and when the
mass was quite dry it was pounded up, and
then it was ready to smoke Were there
pipes to he hadf Not for these boys But
there were big, stout acorns, which had been
DRIED anu hollowed out Tor the purpose. For
pipe stems there We're slender grape vines
with the pith dug out Of their middle Then
the pipes were filled with this preparation.
Every bit of strength had been stepped out OF
the tobacco, and not boy of them all could
get ill upon it, But probably not one Of
them, grown up and given to Reina Victorias
and Partagas, ever enjoys smoke as much
as he did those dried tobacco grounds smoked
from an acorn pipe.-Boston Transcript
